Glass tiles create an illusion of depth which, in turn, makes a room appear more spacious. Since they refract light they make a room brighter and that makes it feel more open. If your primary goal in using glass tiles is to achieve a special illusion you should stick with bright colors. Dark colors will not refract as much light so the effect won’t be as noticeable.

Adding mosaic paintings of wide spaces will also help alleviate some feeling of claustrophobia. Remember that a small room may be cramped but it’s also cozy!
